The first goal of attorney and founder James S. Sweeney is to put your mind at ease. Following an arrest, you may see your future as bleak. You see a lengthy stay behind bars. Our job is to let you know that everything is not as bad as it seems. You have options.
Fighting for Your Rights and the Best Outcome
After being bailed out of jail, you worry about returning if you are convicted. Jail time is not inevitable. There are ways to avoid confinement as you continue to work and rebuild your personal life. Alternative sentencing can include bracelet monitors, alcohol monitoring devices and programs involving rehabilitation and community service.
